jogging in Camp John Hay
Today I walked the streets of Baguio City to revisit The Jeepney magazine vendors. Afterward I decided to walk to home in Tuding, as is my custom lately (the past two weeks). I have three routes. Today I walked south on Session Road to Camp John Hay, then I ran on the Eco-trail. That was fun. Jogging uphill was quite challenging in some places, because I’m not very fit, Baguio City is at altitude with humid air, and the trail was steep. I recommend walking the Eco-trail to everyone who can, and I’d encourage runners from the lowlands who visit Baguio City to run Camp John Hay. It’s less-polluted and more picturesque and peaceful. You can go too fast downhill on the Eco-trail, jarring your knees, or you can slow to a jog or walk downhill where it’s steep. It reminded me of running in University of Tennessee’s arboretum in Knoxville.
